Hello folks ! I just wanted to say this podcast has motivated me to quit drinking and avoid junk food. 12 pounds down in 2.5 months ! This coming from Moncton New Brunswick Canada
Aaron and Dusty are like two kids trying not to get in trouble in Sunday school...then the camera pans out to see Brian and Nate looking like "get it together guys" good show
I’m a Firefighter/Paramedic in North Georgia. I just wanted to let you guys know how much I appreciate all of you. I listen to your podcast on my way home from shift. Whenever I have an especially exhausting shift, mentally or physically, its great to be able to decompress and laugh at, and with you guys. I appreciate everything you guys do, it means more than you know!
I wish someone would make a compilation video of all the times Nate has said "I'm not a _______ guy". Examples: "I'm not a watermelon guy". "I'm not an adverb guy". 🤣😂
Listening to Nate share his humility on this podcast makes me proud to be a fan. I’ve listened to every single episode since the very beginning and I’ve never been disappointed by the content, banter, and general fun this group of personalities have on the Nateland podcast. This is not by accident. Good folks surround themselves with good people and it is refreshing to see comedians like yourselves in the public eye NOT take that for granted. Keep it up Folks!
As a person with mental health problems, Nate's whole thing about owning your own problem instead of making everyone else adapt to you is the most intelligent and insightful thing he's ever said. Best rant ever!
I loved the "Appreciating the moment" discussion. Recently, my family was waiting to board our plane back home to Nashville. Out of nowhere, my 3 year old daughter asks me "daddy, why is everyone looking at their phones?" I looked around and literally everyone (hundreds of people) had their face buried in their phones. It was disturbing and freaked me out a bit so could only imagine the emotions my daughter was feeling in that moment. I told my daughter, "baby, about 20 years ago before cell phones, people actually looked at each other and talked to each other and this is why we don't allow you to touch our phones because cell phones are silly." her response was "okay daddy". I hope my daughter will forever think cell phones are "silly". Love the show, thanks folks.
Aaron waxing poetic about the wonders of science and genetic food modification that has gifted us the miracle of square watermelons and then having Nate interrupt with “do you think they just put the watermelon in a square box while they grow?” is such a perfect example of their different approaches to life and problem-solving.
Dusty: " I had no business running the computer". Man I love these guys and this show. Keeps me company on my long work trips and hotels. Thanks Fellas! Keep up the good work - if you want to call it that.
I think I speak for everyone when I say it would be awesome to have a Nateland+ or "Nateland Extra" podcast. It seems like almost every episode ends with Nate asking Bouncie House "Is that it?" and Brian says "Yeah, pretty much." I want to know the remaining information that Brian looked up! So there should be an extra mini episode where Brian just quickly goes through the remaining fun facts and the rest of the guys react and then maybe share more road trip stories or upcoming events. If Nate doesn't think he can handle any more time with Brian then he could bail out and the podcast could be called "The B.A.D.land Podcast" for Brian, Aaron, and Dusty. Who's with me?!?!
Anyone who is skips the ads on here is missing out! Watching Dusty and Aaron try their best not to laugh at each other while reading, is one of the funniest parts of this show!
The best thing you guys have done (other than getting Dusty on the pod) is sitting him next to Aaron so we can watch Aaron's face while Dusty reads the advertisements. I miss half of what Dusty is saying because I'm laughing at Weber's reaction. Love the podcast!!!!! Keep up the good work.
Where has Dusty Slay been my whole life? So many fun stories. And I think Aaron's comments have gone from great to FANTASTIC now that he has Dusty to interact with. Love this podcast!
It’s fun watching Aaron and Dusty laugh at each other as they read the ads. It kind of reminds me of SNL Weekend Update when they write each other’s jokes at the end of the season. I’d like to see where Aaron and Dusty write each other’s ad reads and they don’t get to see them ahead of time. I think it’s be great fun for everyone and bring more attention to the ads themselves. Win win for everyone.
I don't think Aaron realizes, but those weren't Amish he saw at the grand canyon...in northern Arizona, he definately saw polygamists. same outfits though.
I like how Dusty is talking about how smoking a cigarette while pumping your car is no big deal and then a few minutes later says, “…it’s so flammable and we’re just, like, handling it.”
Just got tickets to see Greg's special recording this weekend! Coming from Indianapolis. Can't wait! His Nateland episode was one of my all-time favorites.
I love how at 31:04 Dusty says how good peppermint tea is for the voice then is immediately followed by Nate sounding like he’s on his deathbed. Sounds like he could use a sip or two of some peppermint tea.😂
I think y'all just solved why you are considered an educational podcast. It's not that you are educating us, but the fans are constantly educating y'all. Learning has never been so fun! Hey Bear!
I worked at a small town gas station that was the "cultural hub" of a small town (population 250 rounded up). The other key buildings were a bar Abe Lincoln may have visited and a Lutheran church where my dad was the pastor. This meant that everyone in town had to buy their packaged alcohol, cigarettes, and lottery tickets from the pastor's kid. I got to know some folks in our small town better in the one year I worked at the gas station than the previous 18 years I lived there. My best friend got a job there too. We got really good at "beer profiling." Someone would walk in, and we would guess what type of beer they would buy. Guys who recently turned 21 are likely to buy Natty Light, people in their 30s or 40s dressed like are going to a barbeque may get But Light or Miller Lite in bottles, and old hunter types of get Stag. Typically, people who smoke Marlboro reds get Budweiser while people who smoke Marlboro lights drink bud light. Gas stations profit margin are really slim on gas, that's why the convenience store part is so important. I really enjoyed my time working at the gas station. I'll go proofread this now.
When Nate is tired and starts his “rants” he reminds me of a grandfather talking about this generation with his grandkids and Baby Bieber sits there quietly looking at him like grandma silently letting grandpa let out his pent up frustration. I love it. I live in Heber Springs, Arkansas. Hey bear is something that we’ll be saying when we actually see bears here. Also Dusty is still the man and needs much more credit for his amazing jokes.
When I was a kid my sister had a seizure and my parents called 911. The police, fire and ambulance were all dispatched to our house. Once my sister stabilized the firemen were leaving and the EMTs were preparing to take my sister in the ambulance. The firefighter came back into the room and calmly says to my mom “ma’am your kitchen is on fire, we need to cut the power”. My mom tells them that’s just a tator tot that fell in the oven earlier that’s burning. He assured her the wall oven was actually in flames. Nothing like the house catching on fire while the fire department is already in your house.
"She said the Hila monster is venomous, not poisonous. There's a difference. I did not know that." "So, what's the difference?" "I still don't know" @36:19 I love you so much Bateland
I am a youth pastor, so I am used to students audibly responding to rhetorical questions or moments in a sermon where they aren’t supposed to. I preached at a funeral this week alongside another guy. When the other guy was sharing some stories and remembering the individual who passed, a grown man in the front row was loudly and awkwardly responding to everything the guy was saying. The guy speaking was a little rattled, but I feel like my years preaching in front of jr. High students had me prepared for this moment. Aaron - would you be available to hire out to help make sure audiences know when enough is enough?
When Nate went on his positive rant, he mentioned someone building something and appreciating it. No one on the show even caught that he said "poetry" instead of pottery. A typical Nate Bargatze word fumble. I love this podcast! Even when they get all serious, we can still get some laughter! 🤣😂🤣
FYI. Not all fuel is the same. I own a chauffeured transportation company and after we switched to only using Shell fuel, we decreased our engine maintenance/issues by about 70%. Discount fuel saves you a few cents up front, but much more later. Of the discount fuel companies, Costco also has high quality fuel.
Nate giving some of the best advice for people to appreciate the moment. So glad you finally decided to do an episode on [checks notes] Gas Stations. Love the pod, keep it up guys!
I never thought an episode about gas stations would exist, but it’s Nateland and anything seems to go. I was hyped because I worked at the Speedway Corporate office in marketing/advertising for 5 years.
Hey Dusty, you were thinking of a slush puppie with the dog on it. 😊 And I found Aaron’s twin, AJ Minter from the Braves. Thanks for making my Wednesday mornings better.
Dusty is really fitting in so well. He looks so much more comfortable now and it feels like we’re seeing more who he is, and he genuinely comes across as a good bloke. Hey Bear! Love this podcast guys you seriously make a difference to our happiness. Keep it up!
I always thought that comics were just naturally funny. But after getting to know, several comics, I realized how much work goes into writing the jokes and performing. I love Comedy because it’s such an amazing art form. I have so much respect for all of you who performed Comedy for a living.
Nate may not have gone to Notre Dame. He may not read good. He might even have a learning disability. But when he dropped the knowledge bomb of sticking the gas cap in the pump handle to keep it running you could see the practical, real life intelligence that you don’t get from going to college. Aaron’s mind was blown along with the rest of us. Genius.
Aaron is my hero with his "enough" commentary. The guy next to me at the Columbia SC show had a low-key "heh heh" laugh after every one of Nate's jokes. I couldn't decide if he was being sarcastic or just lazy. Next time, I'll send for Aaron.
I’ve worked in refining for over twenty years, and was thoroughly surprised to hear you guys say that the mid grade gas is a blend of the higher and lower octane gas. I was shocked because that’s actually correct. Different gas stations use different additives, but the octane comes from blending higher and lower octane gas together. Another great blend - mix the cherry and coke slurpees together to make a cherry coke slurpee.
My friend Jesse and I were at your special taping. It was an incredible show!! It was great being able to just laugh for a while. Even though the couple seated in front of us was completely hammered drunk. I cant wait to see the special, not only to see Nate doing what he was obviously born to do, but also to see if I can pick out the drunk dude passed out in the background with his awful girl trying and failing to loudly wake him up. Thank you for an amazing time.
I have to admit that I love this conversation regarding nectarines. Last week I figured maybe it was a mistake to say that a nectarine is a small orange. But this week we're talking about half apple half peach half plum. That 's a big fruit right there. Nate asks - Do you eat the core right there? And then you argue about whether you can eat it or not. It's a Pit guys. Have we never heard of a peach pit. You just got finished explaining that the nectarine is a type of peach. You sound like aliens seeing fruit for the first time in your life. I can see the topic for next week's show - fruit. Keep up the great work. I can't stop laughing listening to you all.
Haha! I have managed a very well know corporate gas station for 10 years !! The best part of Covid was everyone coming in wearing masks. Not only were we confused if we were getting robbed or not, we also had no idea if you matched your ID when carding you for alcohol. Scariest and funniest time of my career!! Thank you for this topic!! So fun!
I feel like every topic is just a challenge for Brian to keep the guys on track. When he’s not present we have things like, “Candy part 2” - love the podcast guys, keep up the good work!
Love the podcast! I think you guys should do an episode about podcasts. The origin of this one, the idea that started it and how podcasts have changed comedy and media. Always look forward to the new episodes every week. #were having a good time
While I was listening to this episode, my pregnant wife came into the room as Nate was talking about how much he appreciates his career and how far he's come. She asked, "Why is he crying?" I said, "Oh no, he's not crying, he kind of lost his voice; he just taped his special and had a busy weekend." I thought that was that, but minutes later she said, "He's breaking my heart..." Her hormones + the subject matter + Nate's raspy voice brought out more than just laughter this week! Keep up the great work, but please don't make my wife cry.
I’ve never been more grateful to be in standstill traffic in Chicago. I absolutely lost my mind when Nate imitated how Dusty Pan’s family would handle a “diabetic trance”. When he shouted “Margaret!” I lost all muscle control from laughter. As a semi truck driver, I would have been an absolute menace for those around me. That’s ENOUGH, boys. Jokes aside I appreciate you all. Thank you Nate, beanie baby, Grill master Weber and Dusty pan for the laughs and keeping me entertained on the road. Keep it up!
I love that Nate does the podcast even though his voice sounds like how Breakfast looks. Always a great show guys! Thanks for everything.....thats enough
Here on Long Island, they outlawed the auto locks on the gas pumps and took them away back in 2008. Some of the older gas stations still have them, but there are less and less as time goes by. It’s tough.
I feel really good knowing that I've watched enough episodes to have caught Brian's "horse with no name" comment, and understood it, something that almost everyone missed.
We'll be at the GW taping in Lexington! I'm excited to aggressively grab from behind any particular stranger that gets on my nerves since that seems to be completely appropriate behavior for a comedy special taping. Even proper etiquette, perhaps? I guess in Nateland, we yell "Hey Bear" and in Aaronland we say "Enough!" Anyway, can't wait! Listening to Dusty, Aaron, Nate and Boom-shakalakalaka is a weekly highlight. Also, liked that new Froggy Frog guy this week...
I cannot get enough of Aaron cracking up whenever Dusty reads an ad!! Dusty, I can just imagine you pitching pesticides to businesses and it coming off the way you read ads on here. Part genuine and part sarcastic.
Amazing stream of consciousness about personal responsibility, mental health, bird houses, dealing with the present vs the future, and appreciating the moment. People with PHDs in psychology and psychiatry around the world should listen and take notes on how to talk about and explain such deep and complicated topics
I can relate to you Bovery! When I first moved to NY I worked on 56th and Broadway and used to go to Hello Deli and thought it was amazing that Rupert Jee was serving me. Over time I got to know him. Fun fact…he loves fishing….but not sure he loves folks like us being star struck over a deli owner.
It took about 3-4 months but I'm finally all caught up with the podcast from the start.... Now I'm sad because I have to wait for weekly episodes lol. Really excited to see Nate's new special and sending prayers for the poor fella who Aaron "Enough" Weber emotionally assaulted
Attention!!! Let this be an example for any Nateland fan out there, make sure to listen to this podcast the day it comes out! I just listened to it today (Thursday) and heard Aaron say he was going to be in Houston Wednesday night! I work a mile away from where he was and missed it! Love the show, where is the best place to see dates and locations for everyone including Bumper?
I agree with Aaron and his philosophical view of gas stations. I also think the same could be said of this podcast, having something for everyone. I listen at night after my kids are in bed and I'm cleaning up the house. My husband makes tea for himself but I don't drink it because to me, hot tea is just hot dirty water. My husband also had a planet fitness membership before we met and for the first 7 years of our marriage until I nagged him enough that he sent in his cancellation letter. My husband also has gout and had to flare ups that sent him to the ER while I was still in the hospital after the birth of our children. Also, Dusty thanks for taking me back to my 5 years of working at KFC, Shoes for Crews! if you didn't wear them, you could quite literally break your neck. Keep up the great work, love you all!
I'm not sure who you guys are listening to about pumping gas, but I'm an Oregon girl. Grew up here on a 5,000 acre ranch in Central Oregon and I've lived here in Oregon most of my life. Oregonians (as a general statement) were not freaking out over having to pump our own gas..... most of us in the east side of the state were HAPPY! Finally we are able to get out, pump the fuel, and get on our way without having to wait on someone to do it for us or wait in huge lines like they do in the cities! The person saying we all freaked out must be from the West side of the state, that explains a lot. 😉😏
Just last week my husband and I were debating not turning your car off while pumping gas and getting back in the car while pumping. I looked up the chances of a fire or explosion on The Goog and it was like 1 in FIVE BILLION. I leave the car on AND get back in it. I'm livin on the edge.
Let’s go folks! I’m on a mission to listen to every episode before Nate comes to my town, Sioux Falls, SD on Oct 15. I started in August and I’m listening at work at 2x speed because of the time crunch and have 51 episodes to go and 11 work days left. I love that there is a podcast where the hosts talk about anything from pretending to be a guy on his porch that has the same rules as the royal family to if you should test screws that hit you in case they were from space junk. Love the podcast so much! Keep up the good work Nate, Aaron and Bubble! Also, it’s pronounced “freeze” and not “fries-e”
At first when Nate was talking about living in the moment I was really confused. But then I started to understand what he meant. There was a time when I was pretty addicted to entertainment and my phone and I did not realize that I was checking out from my real life. I started to notice that joy was more elusive and my mental health was suffering as a result of not being present. There were other life circumstances and a disorder that contributed. Now, after about a year of practicing mindfulness, going to therapy and making conscious efforts to invest more in my real life and make the most of every day, I am proud to say that I am much happier and less distracted. Love the podcast and the profound ideas that usually seem nonsensical at first.
I mean I’ve loved Dusty’s addition to this podcast but I’m fully convinced with this episode. Dusty kills with random anecdotes and conspiracies and I’ve been reading comments about Nate’s hoarse voice and feeling disappointed with people not understanding that this is the result of the profession
You guys are the best my family can not wait till Wednesday to watch the pod cast on UA-cam.So after last night we saw Dusty in Dayton he was great.So last October my wife got tickets to see Nate in Columbus .Then we find out that night that Arron and Mr. Bates are opening.which was so great.It was a birthday gift from my wife we both laughed so hard .We have watched since the first episode.I know that like all of us who watch know just how we need you guys.So Nate we love you guys too
Listened to this episode yesterday and then last night my wife and I went to a concert at a south Texas honky-tonk. We were standing along a railing, enjoying the performance, when the guy beside us started banging his ring on the railing as if he was part of the percussion section of the band. Super annoying to everyone around! I had given him the stink-eye twice to no avail, and then...emboldened by Aaron's machismo, I turned boldly to this fella and said "Enough!!!" However, I had forgotten to factor in that I am a 53 year old man that is 5'11" and 175lbs and Aaron is...well...larger. Much much larger. I'm now in the Texas Medclinic getting stitches over my right eye. Just wondering if there should be a "Do not try this at home" warning on this episode? Love the show boys...keep em comin!
When y'all were talking about icees and slurpees, Dusty mentioned he loved the dog mascot and then y'all shut him down saying it was a polar bear. He was thinking about Slush Puppies. That's what we had in our mom n pop gas stations in West Georgia, especially by the trailer parks. I'm sure that's what Dusty found in East Alabama gas stations as well.
Definitely appreciate the real moments or "rants" like this episode had. Don't feel obligated to get back to the topic when something real hits you it's cool to see you run with the thought process because it's relatable.
Guys. My father, when he was a child used to throw a Lit match straight into a bucket of gasoline and it wouldn’t flare up. It would go out. He’d win bets with that trick all the time. Granted this was the early 60s. But still. He always said it was the fumes that flared and not the liquid. Much love guys.
The seats in the Celebrity Theater are very close together. So very possible that the hair pinner didn't have much of an option. My knees hit the seats. Great show, Nate!
We moved to Oregon from Arizona when I was 14. It’s about a 2 day drive and when we crossed over the OR state line we stopped to get gas. My dad gets out to fill up the car like he’s done for the last 30+ years of his life, and the gas attendant (who looks to be a 16 year old high school student) comes over and asks if he can help my dad. My dad looks at him with a confused look on his face and says “no thank you, I got it”. Then the attendant politely explained that it’s illegal to pump your own gas in OR, and it’s been the bane of my dad’s existence ever since. He loves going on road trips mostly because he gets to pump his own gas.
Wednesdays are my favorite! Nateland in the morning and church in the evening. A good balance right? When i saw the topic, i smiled, i knew it would be good. They’re all good! Loved Nate’s “rant”, good stuff! As always dusty cracks me up. Brian’s face waiting for everyone to finish so he can move on is hilarious and Aaron’s laugh is the best! I just love all of your unique personalities!
As an Australian who hopes to one day travel to the US, this podcast is giving me a ton of places I never knew I needed to see. I have now added the Penton Grill to my itinerary, just so that I can get the complete Larry Edge story. Thanks Dusty, keep those hyper-local references coming.
My dad grew up Amish. He was also diabetic. Between "diabetic trance" and "amish uniform" y'all had me dying. I listen while mowing, and my neighbors can't figure out what's so funny about cutting grass. Rant on Nate!
You know how the slogan of Petco is/was “where the pets go”? My brain keeps trying to do the same thing with Mapco. This podcast is a highlight of my week every week! Can’t wait to see Nate in Memphis in November!
In Australia, we call them petrol stations or service stations, but most commonly in our general vernacular, we call them a servo. The name service station was more common from when there was an in-house mechanic workshop at the petrol station, or you could top up your engine oil with the free bottles of oil in a rack between the pumps. Nowadays, with about 99% of the service stations also being convenience stores we still use the name servo even though it would be less than a third of the petrol stations that are actually service stations.
Dusty, I am 100% with you on the inconveniences at the gas pump! If any of those things happen I’m just throwing up duces. My husband calls these “first world problems”, but no way I’m waiting around for slow pumping gas & I’ll be darned if I’m going walk inside to sort this whole thing out. I’m just gonna mosey on over to another gas station that allows to me the antisocial hermit that I am 😂✌🏼
Hello folks ! I just wanted to say this podcast has motivated me to quit drinking and avoid junk food. 12 pounds down in 2.5 months !
This coming from Moncton New Brunswick Canada
Congrats folk, that's good progress.
Congratulations! Also, you're doing okay after the "storm" last week?
Literally who gives a fuck?
Holy shit. Almost cared.
Checking in over a year later...how is the sobriety going? I am 3 years and 1 month with no alcohol. You can do it!
Aaron and Dusty are like two kids trying not to get in trouble in Sunday school...then the camera pans out to see Brian and Nate looking like "get it together guys" good show
Takes me back!
This is so accurate 🤣
LOL! I've always said these guys remind me of church camp and Boomer Boo is always patiently bringing the wacky tweens back on topic
I’m a Firefighter/Paramedic in North Georgia. I just wanted to let you guys know how much I appreciate all of you. I listen to your podcast on my way home from shift. Whenever I have an especially exhausting shift, mentally or physically, its great to be able to decompress and laugh at, and with you guys. I appreciate everything you guys do, it means more than you know!
Hello from the Cumming/Ball Ground area! 😊
Nate: Spills his heart out about how appreciative he is of his position
Breakfast: so anyway gas stations
I love that pizza, whataburger, ice cream, ice cream cake and a ton of candy wasn't the cheat day
I wish someone would make a compilation video of all the times Nate has said "I'm not a _______ guy".
Examples: "I'm not a watermelon guy".
"I'm not an adverb guy". 🤣😂
Brilliant! We need 2 columns: "I'm a ____ guy." And "I'm not a ____ guy." Then, look for how many end up like on both lists or switch over... LOL!
Nate asking “What’s that nonsense in the middle?” when shown pictures of nectarines had me laughing so hard! It’s the seed Nate, the seed.
It’s actually a pit, or sometimes referred to a “stone”, hence stonefruit.
Lol, the seed is in the pit hence it’s still the middle
Listening to Nate share his humility on this podcast makes me proud to be a fan. I’ve listened to every single episode since the very beginning and I’ve never been disappointed by the content, banter, and general fun this group of personalities have on the Nateland podcast. This is not by accident. Good folks surround themselves with good people and it is refreshing to see comedians like yourselves in the public eye NOT take that for granted. Keep it up Folks!
As a person with mental health problems, Nate's whole thing about owning your own problem instead of making everyone else adapt to you is the most intelligent and insightful thing he's ever said. Best rant ever!
Watching Aaron trying not to lose it as dusty does ad reads is incredible
Aaron was dying LOL 😂
The reason why I love that this podcast is a video. So much extra context to the jokes. Love it.
I loved the "Appreciating the moment" discussion. Recently, my family was waiting to board our plane back home to Nashville. Out of nowhere, my 3 year old daughter asks me "daddy, why is everyone looking at their phones?" I looked around and literally everyone (hundreds of people) had their face buried in their phones. It was disturbing and freaked me out a bit so could only imagine the emotions my daughter was feeling in that moment. I told my daughter, "baby, about 20 years ago before cell phones, people actually looked at each other and talked to each other and this is why we don't allow you to touch our phones because cell phones are silly." her response was "okay daddy". I hope my daughter will forever think cell phones are "silly". Love the show, thanks folks.
Wow, that is our dystopian world huh? We'd all benefit from having no phones for even a day.
Aaron waxing poetic about the wonders of science and genetic food modification that has gifted us the miracle of square watermelons and then having Nate interrupt with “do you think they just put the watermelon in a square box while they grow?” is such a perfect example of their different approaches to life and problem-solving.
“People say I’m oozing with charm” says Aaron Webber about Aaron Webber.
I mean, technically he is people. There was a time in the beginning when he was closer to two! (Just kidding Aaron, please don't assault me)
@@tylerlahey3000 you win the comments.
Dusty: " I had no business running the computer". Man I love these guys and this show. Keeps me company on my long work trips and hotels. Thanks Fellas! Keep up the good work - if you want to call it that.
The more mundane the topic, the more excited I become. I swear you guys are better than a TEDTalk! Keep it up!
I think I speak for everyone when I say it would be awesome to have a Nateland+ or "Nateland Extra" podcast. It seems like almost every episode ends with Nate asking Bouncie House "Is that it?" and Brian says "Yeah, pretty much." I want to know the remaining information that Brian looked up! So there should be an extra mini episode where Brian just quickly goes through the remaining fun facts and the rest of the guys react and then maybe share more road trip stories or upcoming events. If Nate doesn't think he can handle any more time with Brian then he could bail out and the podcast could be called "The B.A.D.land Podcast" for Brian, Aaron, and Dusty.
Who's with me?!?!
Meh
Love it. Actually it would be cool to see the change in dynamics without the boss - just for a handful of minutes.
Another live show would be pretty rad
Yes
Or just actually make an Aaronland segment
Anyone who is skips the ads on here is missing out! Watching Dusty and Aaron try their best not to laugh at each other while reading, is one of the funniest parts of this show!
The best thing you guys have done (other than getting Dusty on the pod) is sitting him next to Aaron so we can watch Aaron's face while Dusty reads the advertisements. I miss half of what Dusty is saying because I'm laughing at Weber's reaction. Love the podcast!!!!! Keep up the good work.
Where has Dusty Slay been my whole life? So many fun stories. And I think Aaron's comments have gone from great to FANTASTIC now that he has Dusty to interact with. Love this podcast!
I agree, Dusty is the best counterpart for Aaron just like Nate and Breakfast.
It’s fun watching Aaron and Dusty laugh at each other as they read the ads. It kind of reminds me of SNL Weekend Update when they write each other’s jokes at the end of the season. I’d like to see where Aaron and Dusty write each other’s ad reads and they don’t get to see them ahead of time. I think it’s be great fun for everyone and bring more attention to the ads themselves. Win win for everyone.
I don't think Aaron realizes, but those weren't Amish he saw at the grand canyon...in northern Arizona, he definately saw polygamists. same outfits though.
I like how Dusty is talking about how smoking a cigarette while pumping your car is no big deal and then a few minutes later says, “…it’s so flammable and we’re just, like, handling it.”
Just got tickets to see Greg's special recording this weekend! Coming from Indianapolis. Can't wait! His Nateland episode was one of my all-time favorites.
I love how at 31:04 Dusty says how good peppermint tea is for the voice then is immediately followed by Nate sounding like he’s on his deathbed. Sounds like he could use a sip or two of some peppermint tea.😂
In this episode, Nate sounded like Southern Bob Odenkirk…yet still somehow a fantastic episode. Love these guys!
I think y'all just solved why you are considered an educational podcast. It's not that you are educating us, but the fans are constantly educating y'all. Learning has never been so fun! Hey Bear!
I worked at a small town gas station that was the "cultural hub" of a small town (population 250 rounded up). The other key buildings were a bar Abe Lincoln may have visited and a Lutheran church where my dad was the pastor. This meant that everyone in town had to buy their packaged alcohol, cigarettes, and lottery tickets from the pastor's kid. I got to know some folks in our small town better in the one year I worked at the gas station than the previous 18 years I lived there.
My best friend got a job there too. We got really good at "beer profiling." Someone would walk in, and we would guess what type of beer they would buy. Guys who recently turned 21 are likely to buy Natty Light, people in their 30s or 40s dressed like are going to a barbeque may get But Light or Miller Lite in bottles, and old hunter types of get Stag. Typically, people who smoke Marlboro reds get Budweiser while people who smoke Marlboro lights drink bud light.
Gas stations profit margin are really slim on gas, that's why the convenience store part is so important. I really enjoyed my time working at the gas station.
I'll go proofread this now.
When Nate is tired and starts his “rants” he reminds me of a grandfather talking about this generation with his grandkids and Baby Bieber sits there quietly looking at him like grandma silently letting grandpa let out his pent up frustration. I love it.
I live in Heber Springs, Arkansas. Hey bear is something that we’ll be saying when we actually see bears here.
Also Dusty is still the man and needs much more credit for his amazing jokes.
I grow to love Dusty more each week. Dusty was on fire this week
Oh no! Did he step too close to the flammable gasoline?
When I was a kid my sister had a seizure and my parents called 911. The police, fire and ambulance were all dispatched to our house. Once my sister stabilized the firemen were leaving and the EMTs were preparing to take my sister in the ambulance. The firefighter came back into the room and calmly says to my mom “ma’am your kitchen is on fire, we need to cut the power”. My mom tells them that’s just a tator tot that fell in the oven earlier that’s burning. He assured her the wall oven was actually in flames. Nothing like the house catching on fire while the fire department is already in your house.
"She said the Hila monster is venomous, not poisonous. There's a difference. I did not know that."
"So, what's the difference?"
"I still don't know"
@36:19
I love you so much Bateland
I am a youth pastor, so I am used to students audibly responding to rhetorical questions or moments in a sermon where they aren’t supposed to. I preached at a funeral this week alongside another guy. When the other guy was sharing some stories and remembering the individual who passed, a grown man in the front row was loudly and awkwardly responding to everything the guy was saying. The guy speaking was a little rattled, but I feel like my years preaching in front of jr. High students had me prepared for this moment. Aaron - would you be available to hire out to help make sure audiences know when enough is enough?
Best ‘non-rant’ so far. Really appreciate you guys.
When Nate went on his positive rant, he mentioned someone building something and appreciating it. No one on the show even caught that he said "poetry" instead of pottery. A typical Nate Bargatze word fumble. I love this podcast! Even when they get all serious, we can still get some laughter! 🤣😂🤣
FYI. Not all fuel is the same. I own a chauffeured transportation company and after we switched to only using Shell fuel, we decreased our engine maintenance/issues by about 70%. Discount fuel saves you a few cents up front, but much more later. Of the discount fuel companies, Costco also has high quality fuel.
Nate giving some of the best advice for people to appreciate the moment. So glad you finally decided to do an episode on [checks notes] Gas Stations. Love the pod, keep it up guys!
I never thought an episode about gas stations would exist, but it’s Nateland and anything seems to go. I was hyped because I worked at the Speedway Corporate office in marketing/advertising for 5 years.
Hey Dusty, you were thinking of a slush puppie with the dog on it. 😊
And I found Aaron’s twin, AJ Minter from the Braves. Thanks for making my Wednesday mornings better.
Dusty is really fitting in so well. He looks so much more comfortable now and it feels like we’re seeing more who he is, and he genuinely comes across as a good bloke. Hey Bear! Love this podcast guys you seriously make a difference to our happiness. Keep it up!
I always thought that comics were just naturally funny. But after getting to know, several comics, I realized how much work goes into writing the jokes and performing. I love Comedy because it’s such an amazing art form. I have so much respect for all of you who performed Comedy for a living.
This episode has encouraged me to stop smoking cigarettes 😂
It's been 0 episodes since a Nate rant on how people should live.
“Half apple, half peach… I don’t think so”
- Dusty Slay 😂😂
Hahahah “Now that it’s cleared up I’ve had a nectarine” I’m dying at this part.
Nate may not have gone to Notre Dame. He may not read good. He might even have a learning disability. But when he dropped the knowledge bomb of sticking the gas cap in the pump handle to keep it running you could see the practical, real life intelligence that you don’t get from going to college. Aaron’s mind was blown along with the rest of us. Genius.
Aaron is my hero with his "enough" commentary. The guy next to me at the Columbia SC show had a low-key "heh heh" laugh after every one of Nate's jokes. I couldn't decide if he was being sarcastic or just lazy. Next time, I'll send for Aaron.
I’ve worked in refining for over twenty years, and was thoroughly surprised to hear you guys say that the mid grade gas is a blend of the higher and lower octane gas. I was shocked because that’s actually correct. Different gas stations use different additives, but the octane comes from blending higher and lower octane gas together.
Another great blend - mix the cherry and coke slurpees together to make a cherry coke slurpee.
Listening to this on audio-only feels like a sneak preview of Nate’s 2072 special « The Tennessee Old Man ».
My friend Jesse and I were at your special taping. It was an incredible show!! It was great being able to just laugh for a while. Even though the couple seated in front of us was completely hammered drunk. I cant wait to see the special, not only to see Nate doing what he was obviously born to do, but also to see if I can pick out the drunk dude passed out in the background with his awful girl trying and failing to loudly wake him up. Thank you for an amazing time.
I have to admit that I love this conversation regarding nectarines. Last week I figured maybe it was a mistake to say that a nectarine is a small orange. But this week we're talking about half apple half peach half plum. That 's a big fruit right there. Nate asks - Do you eat the core right there? And then you argue about whether you can eat it or not. It's a Pit guys. Have we never heard of a peach pit. You just got finished explaining that the nectarine is a type of peach. You sound like aliens seeing fruit for the first time in your life. I can see the topic for next week's show - fruit. Keep up the great work. I can't stop laughing listening to you all.
at 1:43:00 I thought Burpcloth was trying to get water out of his ear and had to watch it 5 times to figure out what was going on!
Haha! I have managed a very well know corporate gas station for 10 years !! The best part of Covid was everyone coming in wearing masks. Not only were we confused if we were getting robbed or not, we also had no idea if you matched your ID when carding you for alcohol. Scariest and funniest time of my career!! Thank you for this topic!! So fun!
I feel like every topic is just a challenge for Brian to keep the guys on track. When he’s not present we have things like, “Candy part 2” - love the podcast guys, keep up the good work!
Love the podcast! I think you guys should do an episode about podcasts. The origin of this one, the idea that started it and how podcasts have changed comedy and media. Always look forward to the new episodes every week. #were having a good time
While I was listening to this episode, my pregnant wife came into the room as Nate was talking about how much he appreciates his career and how far he's come. She asked, "Why is he crying?" I said, "Oh no, he's not crying, he kind of lost his voice; he just taped his special and had a busy weekend." I thought that was that, but minutes later she said, "He's breaking my heart..." Her hormones + the subject matter + Nate's raspy voice brought out more than just laughter this week! Keep up the great work, but please don't make my wife cry.
I’ve never been more grateful to be in standstill traffic in Chicago. I absolutely lost my mind when Nate imitated how Dusty Pan’s family would handle a “diabetic trance”. When he shouted “Margaret!” I lost all muscle control from laughter. As a semi truck driver, I would have been an absolute menace for those around me. That’s ENOUGH, boys.
Jokes aside I appreciate you all. Thank you Nate, beanie baby, Grill master Weber and Dusty pan for the laughs and keeping me entertained on the road. Keep it up!
I love that Nate does the podcast even though his voice sounds like how Breakfast looks. Always a great show guys! Thanks for everything.....thats enough
Thanks
Here on Long Island, they outlawed the auto locks on the gas pumps and took them away back in 2008. Some of the older gas stations still have them, but there are less and less as time goes by. It’s tough.
You guys should do an episode about our solar system!
Hitting potholes to mix the old gas with the new 😂
We heard a glimpse of Breakfasts’ English accent. I need more. Get some English Breakfast up in here.
They talked about tea last week! ha
I feel really good knowing that I've watched enough episodes to have caught Brian's "horse with no name" comment, and understood it, something that almost everyone missed.
We'll be at the GW taping in Lexington! I'm excited to aggressively grab from behind any particular stranger that gets on my nerves since that seems to be completely appropriate behavior for a comedy special taping. Even proper etiquette, perhaps? I guess in Nateland, we yell "Hey Bear" and in Aaronland we say "Enough!" Anyway, can't wait! Listening to Dusty, Aaron, Nate and Boom-shakalakalaka is a weekly highlight. Also, liked that new Froggy Frog guy this week...
I cannot get enough of Aaron cracking up whenever Dusty reads an ad!!
Dusty, I can just imagine you pitching pesticides to businesses and it coming off the way you read ads on here. Part genuine and part sarcastic.
Amazing stream of consciousness about personal responsibility, mental health, bird houses, dealing with the present vs the future, and appreciating the moment. People with PHDs in psychology and psychiatry around the world should listen and take notes on how to talk about and explain such deep and complicated topics
I can relate to you Bovery! When I first moved to NY I worked on 56th and Broadway and used to go to Hello Deli and thought it was amazing that Rupert Jee was serving me. Over time I got to know him. Fun fact…he loves fishing….but not sure he loves folks like us being star struck over a deli owner.
Watching Aaron laugh while was Dusty reading the ad was so funny!
Loved this weeks episode! Loved hearing Aaron, Dusty, Breakfast, and special guest, Ed Orgeron! Bummed we couldn’t hear Nate say, “Geaux Tigers!”
It took about 3-4 months but I'm finally all caught up with the podcast from the start.... Now I'm sad because I have to wait for weekly episodes lol. Really excited to see Nate's new special and sending prayers for the poor fella who Aaron "Enough" Weber emotionally assaulted
Attention!!! Let this be an example for any Nateland fan out there, make sure to listen to this podcast the day it comes out! I just listened to it today (Thursday) and heard Aaron say he was going to be in Houston Wednesday night! I work a mile away from where he was and missed it! Love the show, where is the best place to see dates and locations for everyone including Bumper?
1:46:30 Dusty you're thinking about Slush Puppies. I used to go get them all the time at the convenient store at the end of my street.
Dusty wanting to call 911 had me rolling 😂😂
I agree with Aaron and his philosophical view of gas stations. I also think the same could be said of this podcast, having something for everyone. I listen at night after my kids are in bed and I'm cleaning up the house. My husband makes tea for himself but I don't drink it because to me, hot tea is just hot dirty water. My husband also had a planet fitness membership before we met and for the first 7 years of our marriage until I nagged him enough that he sent in his cancellation letter. My husband also has gout and had to flare ups that sent him to the ER while I was still in the hospital after the birth of our children.
Also, Dusty thanks for taking me back to my 5 years of working at KFC, Shoes for Crews! if you didn't wear them, you could quite literally break your neck.
Keep up the great work, love you all!
I'm not sure who you guys are listening to about pumping gas, but I'm an Oregon girl. Grew up here on a 5,000 acre ranch in Central Oregon and I've lived here in Oregon most of my life. Oregonians (as a general statement) were not freaking out over having to pump our own gas..... most of us in the east side of the state were HAPPY! Finally we are able to get out, pump the fuel, and get on our way without having to wait on someone to do it for us or wait in huge lines like they do in the cities! The person saying we all freaked out must be from the West side of the state, that explains a lot. 😉😏
What about for the special on a long shot. “Enough is enough” in honor of Nate’s fitness goals and Aaron enough Webber.
Thank you Nate for being so transparent
Just last week my husband and I were debating not turning your car off while pumping gas and getting back in the car while pumping. I looked up the chances of a fire or explosion on The Goog and it was like 1 in FIVE BILLION. I leave the car on AND get back in it. I'm livin on the edge.
Let’s go folks! I’m on a mission to listen to every episode before Nate comes to my town, Sioux Falls, SD on Oct 15. I started in August and I’m listening at work at 2x speed because of the time crunch and have 51 episodes to go and 11 work days left. I love that there is a podcast where the hosts talk about anything from pretending to be a guy on his porch that has the same rules as the royal family to if you should test screws that hit you in case they were from space junk. Love the podcast so much! Keep up the good work Nate, Aaron and Bubble! Also, it’s pronounced “freeze” and not “fries-e”
At first when Nate was talking about living in the moment I was really confused. But then I started to understand what he meant. There was a time when I was pretty addicted to entertainment and my phone and I did not realize that I was checking out from my real life. I started to notice that joy was more elusive and my mental health was suffering as a result of not being present. There were other life circumstances and a disorder that contributed. Now, after about a year of practicing mindfulness, going to therapy and making conscious efforts to invest more in my real life and make the most of every day, I am proud to say that I am much happier and less distracted. Love the podcast and the profound ideas that usually seem nonsensical at first.
After listening to the rest of that conversation, I'm not sure if that was AT ALL what he was talking about. 😂
"I drank gas as a kid" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I mean I’ve loved Dusty’s addition to this podcast but I’m fully convinced with this episode. Dusty kills with random anecdotes and conspiracies and I’ve been reading comments about Nate’s hoarse voice and feeling disappointed with people not understanding that this is the result of the profession
You guys are the best my family can not wait till Wednesday to watch the pod cast on UA-cam.So after last night we saw Dusty in Dayton he was great.So last October my wife got tickets to see Nate in Columbus .Then we find out that night that Arron and Mr. Bates are opening.which was so great.It was a birthday gift from my wife we both laughed so hard .We have watched since the first episode.I know that like all of us who watch know just how we need you guys.So Nate we love you guys too
Listened to this episode yesterday and then last night my wife and I went to a concert at a south Texas honky-tonk. We were standing along a railing, enjoying the performance, when the guy beside us started banging his ring on the railing as if he was part of the percussion section of the band. Super annoying to everyone around! I had given him the stink-eye twice to no avail, and then...emboldened by Aaron's machismo, I turned boldly to this fella and said "Enough!!!"
However, I had forgotten to factor in that I am a 53 year old man that is 5'11" and 175lbs and Aaron is...well...larger. Much much larger.
I'm now in the Texas Medclinic getting stitches over my right eye.
Just wondering if there should be a "Do not try this at home" warning on this episode? Love the show boys...keep em comin!
When y'all were talking about icees and slurpees, Dusty mentioned he loved the dog mascot and then y'all shut him down saying it was a polar bear. He was thinking about Slush Puppies. That's what we had in our mom n pop gas stations in West Georgia, especially by the trailer parks. I'm sure that's what Dusty found in East Alabama gas stations as well.
Definitely appreciate the real moments or "rants" like this episode had. Don't feel obligated to get back to the topic when something real hits you it's cool to see you run with the thought process because it's relatable.
Guys. My father, when he was a child used to throw a Lit match straight into a bucket of gasoline and it wouldn’t flare up. It would go out. He’d win bets with that trick all the time. Granted this was the early 60s. But still. He always said it was the fumes that flared and not the liquid. Much love guys.
Aaron bringing up filling your gas tank at half made me think of Shaq on Inside the NBA debating Kenny about filling up his gas tank.
I would love it if Greg Warren could come back on! Seems like he has more stories to tell!
The seats in the Celebrity Theater are very close together. So very possible that the hair pinner didn't have much of an option. My knees hit the seats.
Great show, Nate!
My parents live ten minutes from the Buc-cee's in New Braunfels. It really is a sight to behold. It's size is almost sinful.
We moved to Oregon from Arizona when I was 14. It’s about a 2 day drive and when we crossed over the OR state line we stopped to get gas. My dad gets out to fill up the car like he’s done for the last 30+ years of his life, and the gas attendant (who looks to be a 16 year old high school student) comes over and asks if he can help my dad. My dad looks at him with a confused look on his face and says “no thank you, I got it”. Then the attendant politely explained that it’s illegal to pump your own gas in OR, and it’s been the bane of my dad’s existence ever since. He loves going on road trips mostly because he gets to pump his own gas.
OMG, poor Nate. My throat hurts just listening to him talk. 😮
I wish Nate wouldn't spend so much time giving advice that no one asked for. I just like it when they tease each other.
Wednesdays are my favorite! Nateland in the morning and church in the evening. A good balance right? When i saw the topic, i smiled, i knew it would be good. They’re all good! Loved Nate’s “rant”, good stuff! As always dusty cracks me up. Brian’s face waiting for everyone to finish so he can move on is hilarious and Aaron’s laugh is the best! I just love all of your unique personalities!
The does Dusty have a beard reminded me so much of the "Does Stanley have a mustache?" Cold open from The Office
As an Australian who hopes to one day travel to the US, this podcast is giving me a ton of places I never knew I needed to see. I have now added the Penton Grill to my itinerary, just so that I can get the complete Larry Edge story. Thanks Dusty, keep those hyper-local references coming.
My dad grew up Amish. He was also diabetic. Between "diabetic trance" and "amish uniform" y'all had me dying. I listen while mowing, and my neighbors can't figure out what's so funny about cutting grass. Rant on Nate!
You know how the slogan of Petco is/was “where the pets go”? My brain keeps trying to do the same thing with Mapco. This podcast is a highlight of my week every week! Can’t wait to see Nate in Memphis in November!
In Australia, we call them petrol stations or service stations, but most commonly in our general vernacular, we call them a servo. The name service station was more common from when there was an in-house mechanic workshop at the petrol station, or you could top up your engine oil with the free bottles of oil in a rack between the pumps. Nowadays, with about 99% of the service stations also being convenience stores we still use the name servo even though it would be less than a third of the petrol stations that are actually service stations.
Dusty, I am 100% with you on the inconveniences at the gas pump! If any of those things happen I’m just throwing up duces. My husband calls these “first world problems”, but no way I’m waiting around for slow pumping gas & I’ll be darned if I’m going walk inside to sort this whole thing out. I’m just gonna mosey on over to another gas station that allows to me the antisocial hermit that I am 😂✌🏼
Aaron needs to patten the idea of sonic style gas station that is probably one of the best ideas ive heard!!!
Stop treating me like I'm a Joseph Bart-gaze.
